Parent Newsletter - November 2016

Dear Parents/Guardians & Families,

On Wednesday November 9th BronxWorks is presenting their Community School Kick off! Bronxworks will provide service for families and the community. It will also have raffles, swag Bags, Games, live DJ and Food.

On Wednesday, November 23rd, we will have an International Feast! It is our goal to take the time to celebrate the diversity of our students with food. In order to make this a success, we need your support. We need for each child to donate a dish, if possible. All food donations can be sent with the child to school in the morning. There will be teachers at the entrance to collect items from students. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact Mr. Echavarria at 718-583-6767

Please continue to follow our school safety policy. All parents, guardians, and visitors must show photo identification when visiting the building. All visitors must go to the main office once you have signed in at the School Safety desk.

If you would like more information about any further event feel free to contact Mr. Echavarria at 718-583-6767, or just check our school website for updates.

As we approach Thanksgiving, our thoughts often turn to gratitude. Here at IS339, we are especially grateful for our students who are the focus of the teaching and learning that occur daily at the school along with the teachers and staff who devote their careers to helping students expand their knowledge, make new discoveries, and grow, both in and out of the class room. Best wishes from the 339 Tech Tiger family to your family for a very happy Thanksgiving!
